Colonic sessions will vary from clinic to clinic. At our centre, allow for an hour as time needs to be set aside to change, evacuate the bowel after the colonic session and in some cases shower, should there be minor soiling.
The colonic session itself when conducted by a qualified hydrotherapist will take 25-40 minutes depending on the individual. The most important thing a client can do is to concentrate on relaxing the abdomen so more can be released faster.
A qualified colonic hydrotherapist massages the abdomen at appropriate times during the colonic session, accelerating the release.
The session is at a close when very little comes out and a “caecum flush” is observed which looks similar to pea soup. This is the fresh stool that comes from the ascending colon which means that the water has gone all the way around to the beginning of the large intestine. Following the caecum flush the Colonic Hydrotherapist will continue for another minute or two until the water comes out cleaner with an occasional fluff of white clean mucous.
